This important task has been laid upon a presidential search committee that will choose a list of approximately 5 finalists from applicants coming from all across the country. These finalists will then be presented to the Utah Board of Regents, w ho will ultimately choose UVSCs new president. The search committee consists of members meant to represent the interests of the state, community and the school. Throe nieii.bcis uf the Board of Regents head the committee, with Charles Johnson as chairman. The rest of the committee is made up of three members from the school's Board of Trustees, six faculty, three members of the community, one alumni representative, one staff member and the only representative for the students, the student body president. A meeting was held by the committee last Thursday, Sept. 19 to get input from the UVSCs students, staff, faculty and members of the community. Each individual group had one hour allotted to them for an opportunity to discuss openly and bring many issues that are to be considered by the committee. Of main concern from all groups was the committee's decision to prematurely run advertisements announcing the position in higher-education publications across the nation. Emphasis was placed upon the committee's lack of effort to obtain adequate feedback before running the advertisements. Many felt that the announcement that was placed failed to accurately describe the ideal candidate that would be needed to fulfill the expectations of a new president. The hurried effort to place announcements for the opening caused feelings of distrust and betrayal towards the committee from the faculty and students. Even members of the search committee were reportedly uninformed that the advertisements "Selection" continued on page 3 FBI prdalsr John Douglas ByJac Conterio OF THE NETXNEWS STAFF John Douglas, FBI profiler paid a visit to UVSC Wednesday.

He has a lot of work ahead of him, but has enough time to share advice with all UVSC students. Dr. James W. Fenton. Jr. has spent half of his career in academics, and the other half in the working world in upper-level management of several corporations. His experiences give him a unique perspective for students hoping their education will help them start their career. "Students need to focus on the importance of their education." said Dr. Fenton. He believes that students often get caught up in our fast-pace society, and their education may suffer as a result. "Plan for the future; look ahead at w hat you can be. In this society and in this country, you are only limited by the limitations you put on yourself." Dr. Fenton will tell any student their main focus is to get the most out of education, and never stop learning. Dr. Fenton moved to Utah in July to take the job as the new Dean of the School of Business. Most recently, he was the president of two sister corporations based in Florence, South Carolina. Before his latest stint in the corporate world, he was an Endow ed Professor and interim Dean at Francis Marion University's School of Business, also in Florence. He was pivotal in earning accreditation from the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business, of w hich only about 0'7r of all business schools in the U.S. achieve. Dr. Fenton is excited to be a part of UVSC and it's future evolution, w hich is part of the reason he decided to come here. He was interested in the challenge of helping UVSC and the School of Business grow, and hopes to see Business School graduate degrees come to UVSC in the next five to seven years. He is working to solicit large donations from private individuals to help the college's funding, but knows that without a chance from the state, UVSC has a difficult road ahead.
